Remote Office - Connect Remotely to the Company's Network

There are many ways to implement this functionality, it only depends on how many users need to connect in the same time and the existing IT network infrastructure.

Connect using a VPN device to connect from anywhere to the files on the Shared Folders or even to their computer desktop in the office over an encrypted connection (known as VPN – Virtual Private Network). This is reliable and easy to use and it would cost just around $149-199 (the VPN router) plus the setup which takes around 3-4 hours. See Case Study No 3

Connect using a Microsoft Small Business Server 2003, 2008, 2011 with Remote Web Workplace (built in). This solution is more expensive in the begining, but the server offers a lot more benefits and functionalities, not only the remote access so it's strongly recommended for any office with 3-20 computers.

Connect using a remote access software such as LogMeIn , GoToMyPc, etc. installed on each desktop computer. This solution will cost a monthly fee though and it's seldom recommended.
